This necklace is more visually complex than\u00a0&#8220;Flowers For Brenna&#8221; and took more time.<\/p>\n<p>When I start one of\u00a0these\u00a0projects I have no idea how they will turn out. I don&#8217;t draw them or in any way work out details on paper. I started this one by having Dick Barber cut and form the spiculum tubes.I specify the basic\u00a0dimensions and tell Dick to not worry\u00a0about\u00a0uniformity, I want them all different in an unplanned way. \u00a0I then took the tubes and started bending them. They bend the way they want to bend, sometimes it\u00a0works the way I envision and sometimes I am completely surprised.<\/p>\n<p>Out of the 4 main tubes for this necklace 3 bent as I expected and the 4th was very different. The 4th tube looked much better pointing down. I had not thought of this in any previous necklace but, I thought it would work very well and kept it pointing the way it wanted. These flower pieces are organic in the way I construct them, I just let the material tell me what it wants to do and I try not to fight it but let it grow. This applies to the bezels as well. I get a feeling of how many or what length I want them to be but when the assembly takes place I have to let go of my ideas and put how ever many pieces will fit and look good together.<\/p>\n<p>I sent this necklace and &#8220;Flowers For Brenna&#8221; to Vicki Turbeville of southwesternjewelry.net in New York City. Vicki sold this piece very quickly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I made this necklace and &#8220;Flowers For Brenna&#8221; at the same time.
